My two sons were in a motor vehicle accident. We consulted with Mr. LeFante and knew right away that he is a person who cares about his clients. I was amazed at how efficient and fast everything went. Within 6 months we had everything settled and we received the settlement that we were looking for. There were absolutely no errors in the entire process. I have recommended several people to Mr. LeFante and if I am ever in need of an attorney in the future he will be the first person that I call.

Truck Accidents

FREE CONSULTATION: 309-285-8738

The improper operation of large trucks and tractor-trailers on Illinois roads is the cause of hundreds of catastrophic accidents and fatalities each year. When trucking regulations are ignored, these massive vehicles can cause immense damage.

Common causes of truck accidents on Illinois roads and highways include:

Truck driver negligence

Distracted driving

Driving while under the influence of intoxicating substances including alcohol, and narcotics

Commercial truck drivers require special training and licenses, and must adhere to special regulations. Unfortunately, some trucking companies ignore regulations that allow under-trained and unqualified drivers operating on our roads. Victims of trucking accidents are entitled to compensation for their injuries from all at-fault parties, which may include not only truck drivers, but also the trucking company that employs them, the government for dangerous roadway conditions, and trucking manufacturers for the development of defective products.
